Melvin Borysiewicz Obituary

On April 1, 2020 Mel Borysiewicz passed away at the age of 82 after a long battle with bladder cancer. Mel spent his final days at his Ocoee home, surrounded by his loving wife Patricia, his children Kim, Mark, Jeff and Amy and his eight grandchildren.

Mel moved from Chicago to Orlando in 1974 and many people remember when he owned and operated the Union 76 Service Station on Powers Drive and Silver Star Rd in Pine Hills. In 1990 he exited the gas station business to relocated and expand his thriving Bel-Aire Auto Service, just a short distance away. Mel spent his retirement years enjoying his grandchildren and passing along his lifetime of knowledge and wisdom. We love you pops!

Dad, Papa, you were our rock. We miss you and love you more than words can explain. Thank you for all that you did for us. You were a father figure to my boys and they loved you and respected you but more importantly were genuine friends with you. They could be found at your house working and learning beside you at any given time. We will never forget our too many to count, trips to the mountains with you. Our hearts are broken but our memories run over. Until we see you again, all our love, Kim, Hunter, Noah, Jack and Josh
